What to Wear: Hemlines and Silhouettes
Unlike the formality of the wedding ceremony, welcome parties invite flexibility. Knee-length and tea-length dresses are popular choices, offering sophistication with a touch of ease. But don’t rule out full-length gowns, especially if the event is held at a formal venue or upscale restaurant.
Teri Jon offers a range of silhouettes that celebrate your figure while providing the coverage and comfort you want. Sheath dresses with flattering seams, A-line styles with graceful movement, and midi dresses with subtle embellishments all strike the right balance between effortless and elegant.
Color, Fabric, and Fit for the Season
This spring and summer, think florals, pastels, and breathable fabrics. Lightweight jacquards, chiffons, and cottons are perfect for warmer weather events. Consider shades like sky blue, blush, soft gold, or mint green. If the welcome party transitions from day to night, choose a dress with a touch of shimmer or subtle detailing.
As we move into fall, opt for deeper hues and richer textures. Jewel tones like sapphire, berry, and navy blue offer timeless elegance. Jacquard, tweed, and structured lace are all beautiful options that work well in autumn settings, especially if you're attending an evening event.
